I don't see why this is being made out to be a "Black -vs- White" people issue. Here this beautiful woman is showing you some make-tips to achieve fuller lips...some of you were blessed with & others maybe not so much....take what you want from the video & if it doesn't apply to you...move on...STOP making everything including this well-done make-up video a "race issue." I loved her make-up tips & will subscribe to her videos b/c she obviously "knows" what she is talking about...whereas "others" just want to complain....don't watch then...go someplace else. DESI PERKINS, you've done a great job!!! Don't allow the "negative" people who post here get you down...they are down b/c they are downers!!! Follow your own path & keep bringing your A game to every video you make...Thanks again for this video....LOVED it!!!
Africans have had for a long time, now since a beautiful (white is considered beautiful) person made her lips bigger, now everyone wants it. Same for tanning, European descent use to hate the look of dark skin, until Coco Chanel said she was going to tan. It's giving credit where it's not due. Say other races have plump lips too, they're from someone in their family along the line.
Mij Beth there are other ethnicities & cultures whose women has many of the same characteristics as African American women; such as Latina, Cuban, & mixed ancestory.....I don't think you hear us crying about giving us "credit" for things as much as I do African-Americans. Come on, people who are "insecure" seek validation from "others" those who are "secured" don't need it, b/c they know what & who they are....as I said in my previous post if you can use something from this video regardless of "who" is making it, take the tips & look better. Please stop making everything into a Black/White issue people are tired of that...as a philosopher once said: "I don't know the way to success, but I do KNOW that trying to please everyone is not it." You are beautiful & you should always feel that way, regardless of what others may say about you.....Wishing you & everyone else the best.....I liked this video & used it yesterday....LOL....friends wanted to know why I looked different.....Life is too short to haggle over things you can't control. Live life in the best manner you can....b/c Girl, negativity kills!!! And that's the truth!!!
Elena S. We r all mixed. This is a distinct featured multi-racial people have. My black sisters had thick lips forever, peolle looked down on us. White women have evolved to want pale skin, slender bodies and red stained lips, look through European history. If a white girl has curly hair and thicker lips, you'll find an African ancestor. I'm sleaking the truth. I'm okay with Kylie Jenners 'new' lips, they look good, but this is inspired from other multi-racial people, people are behaving like it never existed. Latin women are descended from people who lived in the tropics and people from Spain, and even slaves (mind I say African slaves), the Aztecs had features similar to Africans but not as deep. When you like in a certain environment you evolve to adapt to the area. Darker skin is an example. I understand why your saying this in defending yourself, I'm saying this because I have facts. If you you have further more arguments I am open, I'm here to learn :)
Mij Beth -I am a secure woman, I don't need to defend myself about anything...my point was simple....I don't come to You Tube of all place to "debate" w/anyone....including you. I just take what I can use & if it doesn't apply to me I don't pay any attention to it....I understand your feelings about how African-Americans were treated by the USA & even now(almost EVERY culture/race that came from another country has suffered almost the same...Look at the American-Indians who were not only here first but were placed on "reservations" & I don't see them on this type of a make-up video posting---how unfair this is bah bah bah....Girl, this is a make-up video not a place for a debate, if that is what you are seeking....perhaps, you need to find another venue....as I will no longer give this another thought. Personally, it sounds like you have an axe to grind but I will not engage any further...so long & best wishes to you....I going to look for another good video to watch.
Elena S. Ylu did start this debate, you were asking for someone to reply, I gave you what you wanted. All, I'm sayin full lips are not new. How am I turning this into slavery? I'm talking about how races evolved. Why don't you read facts instead of preaching your biased opinions? Read anything from cosmetics to evolution, they state white women have distinct features while other races are very different. We don't all look the same. In Europe, they never saw the sun that much, so paler skin, slender nose (to help with the cold) came about, opposite for Africans and different but similar to other races. Asians have more fat packed around their eyes to protect them from the cold. Everyone jnherits traits from an ancestor.
The whole over drawing your lip WASNT for me, or so I thought until I saw this. I saw this around 5pm waited till I got home & told myself "this isn't going to work" once I tried im absolutely in love!!! I don't think you understand you literally just gave me life. This works so perfect and it shapes your lips so perfect too!!!
It's very sad when men think we wear makeup for them... Silly little boys.most women know you don't even look is in the face.I do my makeup for me. Sorry I don't like to look the sane everyday and if I wanted to look natural I'd move to the rainforest. For all you women hating,yes I contour and change my face shape because I fucking can. Why would I look basic or "natural" aka boring when I can look and feel fabulous? Sadly I feel like there's more women hating on makeup than men...let's empower each other instead of criticize and cut each other down. You wanna extreme wear makeup? Awesome.you wanna wear no makeup? Awesome.who fuckin cares?! Bottom line: but did you die?
Jennifer Kopf jennifer, i agree with you! so many women hate on the women who wear make up everyday.. this is all i'm gonna say: first, it is none of your business; second, the women who hate on others are the ones try to put on wing eyeliners at night but can't do it.
Jennifer Kopf "if I wanted to look natural I'd move to the rain forest" lmao!!! I totally agree. Some days I wear no make up at all, some days I over line, contour, eye shape, all of it. And you know? My husband tells me I look beautiful on both kinds of days, because he known I wear that shit for me, not him.
that's great! its pretty rare for that. I'm not trying to make this a negative convo so hope you dont like curse at me. but maybe theres a little black in you. I had no idea people did this to get bigger lips!
You are so lucky girl! Im White and I have medium lips and overlining my lips is really tricky becuase if I do it even a little bit wrong I look like Miranda Sings haha.
haha girl your beautiful the way you are ! I seen some where its literally nothing there. I'm like how does she kiss people lol! But I never knew people did this I mean I just put the lipstick on. Nowadays I guess you never tell lol! thank you:)
kiarahcutiepie11 I'm ignorant for pointing out a very common feature to not just black women but black people as a whole? It is predominantly black people with big features, features that have always been beautiful but have always been criticized (of course it is no longer criticized since people like Kylie Jenner have somehow made our features "accepted.") So please do not call me ignorant for 1. telling a known fact and 2. crediting black people for beauty that inspired others. You guys love to credit everyone else for things you have or have done, and when it is pointed out, you call the person "ignorant" for crediting you. Shame.
kiarahcutiepie11 I would prefer if you said that instead of the other comment. Of course I wouldn't expect her to use such a title, I was crediting us for the lip thing (especially since it used to be thought of as an"ugly" trait) but I do see your point in the way that I wrote my comment. I wouldn't expect her to actually use that as a title, but it was said to make a point in our favor.
I want to see the tutorial of this makeup that you were wearing in the video. Awesome tips about the lips....I will try them ASAP!!! Thanks! Kisses from Brazil.
Yes! Tutorial for the eye look please!! I was actually having a hard time concentrating on this tutorial from staring at your eyes. I was SO hoping there would be a link in the description for it :( Its gorgeous!!!
If you see Kylie without makeup on, on the show, her lips are really tiny. It almost looks as if she has none. She does this with her lips, that's why it's called "The Kylie". She didn't pump her lips with silicon, despite what's been said in magazines and on the internet.
***** Kylie just posted a photo recently on Instagram with absolutely no makeup on. Her lips are still huge. I'm sure she over lines her lips a bit, but I'm a makeup artist and there is absolutely no way her lips get THAT big with lip liner alone. You can't have lips that small and over line them that much, they just won't look good. When over lining your lips, you need to stay very close to the natural line of your lips, so if Kylie were to do that with small lips, they still wouldn't be as big as they are right now. She definitely has gotten lip injections, BUT, that being said, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with that!! Women should be allowed to do WHATEVER they want without being ridiculed for it. All power to Ms. Jenner. :)
C heart In my opinion, Jay-Z has great lips. They're nice & full and pouty. ...great lips. Kerry's lips are also fabulous as is a whole lot of other people. Black people aren't the only people on the planet with full lips. There are white people with full lips, Asians, etc. Also, not all black people have full lips. I have relatives who's lips a thin.
And that's the problem, right there. Many black women have beautiful full lips but other cultures and races would make fun of them. Watch older cartoons and see how they mock African Americans with the exaggerated features.. So then some white girl , (Kylie Jenner) comes along, and gets lip fillers and all of a sudden her lips are so beautiful? GTFO with that mess.
fshonuff never said that this whole thing is appropriate, just saying that people need to stop hating on her. it's not her fault society is so fucked up that they recognize only white or light skinned people with big lips beautiful
Please do a tutorial on this look! LOVE IT! And it really makes your brown eyes shine.....and I am always looking for colors that make my brown eyes pop. I LOVE your lips. Gonna try that tomorrow.
by far one of the best tutorials out there for lip over lining . thank you going to try this. I have supper thin lips and haven't found a way to line them and make it look good
Yes please do a tutorial on this look! And it looks so good with the black clothing. I just started over lining my lips and I love it! I have a really small but pouty mouth, so I like to make my lips look a bit wider and fuller. It's just fun to do once in awhile :)
This was so helpful, I have the same issue where one of my lips is more straight on one side so I am excited to try this out, and omg a ice skate blade to the face?? OUCH
I love her eye makeup, the inner lower line especially. She has used what appears to be a pink or red, an unusual choice, but it has the effect of making her eyes look whiter and the eyes stand out well. Really stunning.
YASS thank you for this tutorial. I've always had small bird lips & wanted injections & then this past January I nearly lost my top lip when my dog attacked me & I had to get 35 stitches now I have a couple scars & one side is even thinner. So I've been trying to find the best way to over line without it looking cray & it's depressing looking at my hundreds of lipsticks everyday bc they're so hard to wear now lol but your tips really helped 💋
This is the best over-drawing lip tutorial I've found. Not just because it's relatively simple, it's straight-forward, but also because your lips look fabulous. Very good tips--thanks!
I love the pink in the waterline of your eyes! I would never have thought to try as I would have assumed it might look like pink puffy eyed but it's really cute!
black girls aren't the only one with big lips. every time there's a makeup tutorial or hair tutorial they always want to comment saying everybody's trying to be them. no.
I'll try that thank u. And hell yeah where is the eye tutorial because that look is gawgeous dahling! Lol. I think it would look great on dark brown eyes.
Girl I love your lips but hate Kylie Jenner's lips I am so over her lips it's not cute on her I don't know who told her it looked cute but they lied! Poor girl! I like yourS tho! And I ain't lying!
I agree...it's so obviously Kylie Jenner got lip implants. We have all these tutorials showing how to get her lips when in reality you gotta call a plastic surgeon up
You seem like an awesome person, this video made me happy. Not even the tutorial part. The random conversation you have with these computer people gave this video so much personality
Lucia Zendejas Where can I get those? Thank you so much in advance. It is a nice warm color for the holidays. Walgreens? CVS? Walmart? Rite Aid? I am in LA
some chicks here compare us like we teased them for having big lips when they were young?? none of us here have. THEYRE LITERALLY MAD WE WANT FULLER LIPS TO IMPROVE OUR FACIAL AESTHETIC LIKE WHAT.
My problem is, I have an awful lip shape. The cupids bow is pointy instead of rounded and it goes down too far, and then my lips end before the line of my mouth does if that makes sense. They're also naturally down turned so if I'm not smiling my lipstick looks shitty.
Jesus_in_a_skirt I love pointy cupids bows! mine is super round and i can never get it even. just find yourself a girl on here that has lips that look like yours and you'll figure it out!
This sounds like mine, and I know what you mean about the lips ending before the line of your mouth. But a lot of people actually envy pointy cupid bows and try to recreate them!
Probably because Kerri's look so natural. They most likely are, and it's unrealistic for the average person to try to get her lip shape. Angelina's have that kind of swollen Botox look. Of course, hers may be natural as well. In my opinion, they're not as perfect as Kerri's.
+Joia Amé baby girl my life is fantastic right now ! :) while you sit your ass at home getting big mad at comments I'm traveling the world and proudly serving the army ! If that's a miserable life then I love living it ❤️
+Diamond Thompson no hate or anything but it's her signature look and she's pretty big right now so everyone will refer to them as "kylie jenner lips" for a while . i'm sure someone will take her place soon though
actually, the simple explanation is, that her change became viral. African women had been known for having bigger lips way before. Sorry to say this, but you are the stereotype of an african american, and it is kind of sad.
Girl I just love your tutorials so much. I don't even do half the shit you show us how to do. I just love watching you make this lovely art. And you're funny so that's a plus as well.
Idk y black girls get so offended by this lmao. She's not doing this to offend anyone. Y'all act like its her fault some ppl get made fun of for naturally having big lips. It looks good on her so leave her alone. Maybe learn to not give a duck what ppl think about u. It's not about race so stop making it about that
They're getting angry bc they've been bullied for years for having big lips. Most black people have bigger lips than white people. So yes, it is a race thing. All of a sudden it became a trend bc a white girl suddenly got big lips. Angelina Jolie is also known for her big lips. I know a bunch of black celebrities with big lips who are not known for their big lips.
+Briana No it's not about race. The video isn't titled "how to get black people lips". People are just hating because they're mad she actually looks good with "big lips". If they got made fun of for it because it didn't look good on them it isn't anyone's fault. I'm just saying there is no point in getting mad at this under this video people wanna argue about everything and make everything about race
based mavi G What if all of a sudden women of color started bleaching their skin? A woman of color then gets praised for her light skin. More women of color bleach their skin. But, before all that white women were bullied for their light skin. You would be angry, right? They don't get bullied bc they look bad in them. I used to get harassed and bullied a couple times before Kylie Jenner. It's just that people are not used to them. They don't always say big lips are ugly. They also say I have "DSL." Which really disgusts me and makes me feel bad. She shouldn't have had "Kylie Jenner lips" in the title. She didn't invent them.
+Briana But no one specifically invented big lips? Many races have big lips, FYI. My sister and I have REALLY full lips and we are 25% Mexican and 75% Caucasian so...
I have big lips, a big butt however, I'm not black. In fact, I have lips and a butt bigger than most of the black people I know. I understand that it's unfair how people make fun of your traits but shut up the moment it becomes a trend. This trend does not BELONG to only black people it belongs to you just as it belongs to me and anyone with big lips. When I was 12 people spread rumors that I did fillers... Anyways since Desi did not discriminate and actually MENTIONED SOMEONE BLACK I don't understand why y'all are freaking out. She wasn't being mean about it she didn't discriminate anyone so I think everyone should just calm down and focus about the important stuff LIKE THE PEOPLE THAT ARE DYING NOT FASHION TRENDS
They are called black features because over 90% of black women have big butts and lips. Most other races dont unless they are mixed with african like some Brazilians, colombian, ricans, dominicabs
tigerstripes she probably have a big wide flat butt. She’s probably giving herself too much credit because she knows we don’t know what she looks like.
